“Had to stop by my favorite Italian grubbin in the heart of Old Town Pasadena all the way from Boise. This was my 3rd time and each time just keeps getting better; definitely the bigger the party, the better. We paid $225 for 4 pasta entrees, 3 appetizers, & 2 glasses of wine for a party of 6. I’ve learned to like my pastas al dente after having them here. The meatballs are banging, the wine-pairing was delightful. Our service was attentive and pleasant; the vibe is always vibrant and homey. Highly recommended.“

“The food was great had the Chicken Parmesano, the chicken was tender and the sauce that was on it was delicious and light. Came with mashed potatoes, sautéed carrots, and broccoli. The vegetables were tender but needed more flavor. The mashed potatoes were done well and had a lot of flavor. Dont know if we were there too early but there was only one server, don't get me wrong he was great but he did need help. Overall I would dine here again.“

“love the service here. been coming here for over 22 years“

“I haven’t been here but as I was drinking a very nice bottle of Italian wine I read the label to find out more. I saw that it was imported by D’Aquino. I looked them up online, always eager to find a good import company dealing with Italy. I wondered why they have such a low review score. As a business owner who has been robbed and vandalized multiple times - even held up at gun point to be robbed - I stand behind them 100% for being vigilant. I also look forward to visiting their place of business next time I am out that way . Thanks to Andrea the local guide for doing what you do. On our recent trip to Italy we found one of our favorite restaurants by taking the recommendation from a local guide. A votre sante!“

“I’m big fan of wood fire Pizza. Finally a halal spot. MashaAllah pizza is amazing. I love the crust. And the pizzas are light, so we got a couple options for me and my family.“
